I think it's more complex than that. I think the different shapes actually hold onto more or less sauce and that changes the flavor. Also bigger pieces make you have to chew them more and the carbs break down making them probably taste a little sweeter.

Only to the extent that some shapes absorb more sauce than others. The tube pastas versus plain spaghetti taste different because sauce creeps into the tube so you taste it on the outside of the tube and also on the inside...with spaghetti, there is no inside! :) Happy Friday m'dear! :) ((hugs))
